About the Event
Please join us for a film and video artists’ workshop/lab with visual artist, sculptor, and filmmaker Jaime Lauriano.
About the Speaker
Jaime Lauriano’s works call us to examine the structures of power contained in the production of history. In audiovisual pieces, objects and critical texts, Lauriano shows how violent relations maintained between the institutions of power and State control - such as the police, prisons, embassies, borders - and subjects shape the subjective processes of society. Thus, his production seeks to bring to the surface historical traumas relegated to the past, confined files, in a proposal to collectively revise and rework history.
